I am brethren with some cats, but not all. The felines that harbor the appearance of british gentlemen I have not yet seen the particular appeal nor fondness for. Calicos are my besties.
I also have a thing with pigeons for whatever reason. I find them utterly adorable, and I know they're quite intelligent. At least once a week, I have a dream where I pick up a pigeon off of the street, put it into my backpack, and just walk away. Without fail.
I also enjoy cockatiels and African Gray Parrots. Them's fancie biards, yesh.
